Dramas of a Preteen

Drama #5: HIGH SCHOOL SCRUGGLES - How can I get so many injuries from a BUS?!

I walked out the front door of my house and locked it close. As I looked to my right to see whether the bus had come or not. Instead, I saw a bus, my bus, fly past.

In an instant, I was down my stairs and running alongside the bus to the bus stop.

I think the bus slowed down or something because I made it to the bus stop like a second before it did.

And as I hopped on the bus, the only thing I said to my friend who was watching me run like a maniac down my street was, "Nailed it,".

Which I did, because as soon as I hopped on to find a seat, I managed to find one at the front of the bus.

BAM!

Like a boss.

*cue the applause*

Gosh, that one sentence always reminds me of Better Than Revenge by Taylor Swift.

So cue the applause
Just show me how much better you are
(How much better you are)
So let's here the applause
'Cause she's so much better
She took him faster than you could say 'sabotage'

#SwiftieMoment y'all!

So, um, where was I again?

Oh yeah the last and final story for this chapter....

Story #3

Okay. So this story isn't actually about me somehow hurting myself on the bus, but rather a funny coincidence that had happened...

And it has to do with a bus.

So, it was an ordinary school day. I had arrived at the bus stop and went on Wattpad until my friend came to talk to me.

So we were talking about random shiz people talk about (I think. I don't actually remember what we were talking about) until we realised it was almost time for the bus to come.

I checked my watch, it was almost 10 past 8, so the bus would be arriving soon.

But that never happened.

Slowly, the minutes started ticking away until it was chewing into the time of the late bus.

Therefore, people who catch the later bus also joined us.

So the bus stop became very crowded.

It seemed as if the 'entirety of our school population' was at this one bus stop, as one senior girl called it.

"You know what would be funny," My friend, uh, Isabel, let's call her Isabel, said to me, "If the early bus is behind the later bus, and they show up at the same time!"

I laughed. "Yeah. That would be funny! Has it happened before?" Isabel nodded.

"Yeah. It happened last year."

You see, Isabel is in the year above me. I am a humble newbie.

I don't know if Isabel is side-kick or anything because her statement came true.

Sure enough, the later bus was first to arrive at our bus stop, with the early bus trailing behind it like a lost puppy.

The early bus was very full, as everyone hopped on that one. The later bus was empty.

Seeing as there was about a bus load of people waiting at our stop, everyone went on the empty late bus, laughing at the occourance.

We literally took up the whole bus!

(Yes, some people sat on a two seater by themselves, but that's not the point!)

It was hilarious!

I asked Isabel how that could happen, like the bus company knows that there is a bus that comes 10 past, and a bus that comes 20 past, so why would they do this?

"Because the person who is driving the early bus is probably new so they don't know the route," She had told me, "Therefore, they would follow the late bus so they can learn the route and which stops they go to."

It's in times like these which I look up to Isabel with great respect. She is like the Jedi Knight and I am her apprentice, so when she graduates, I will be able to use the knowledge she gave me to become a Jedi Knight too.

When we got to school, I couldn't help but tell my friends this story, even though they were criticising me that I got to school later than usual. Apparently, 'the bus was late' is not a good excuse for them.

Overall, I enjoy catching the bus, and I have so many more stories to tell you about them, but now is not the time.

One thing still bothers me though, how can I get so many injuries from a bus!?!

~🚍~

A/N: Okay so I realise that some of those stories were pretty lame and short (ish. Is 1.3K words short for y'all?). Sorry if you think the chapter stinks.

So um, what do you think of this mini series? Good idea, bad idea? Any suggestions (if you have any)?

Oh! And tell me your bus dramas! Doesn't have to be that you injured yourself, it could be about anything! The best story gets a dedication in the next chapter!

This chapter is dedicated to annalise_val for being my Isabel!

Anyone else have an Isabel?

Geez. I'm asking a lot of questions today. Sorry if I'm making you uncomfortable. XD
